Pavement culture is to return to Harrogate for the summer as pop-up wine bar is launched

A new pop-up wine bar for the summer is bringing pavement culture back to Harrogate this week.

Ake & Humphris will have tables and chairs outside its store, offering fabulous wines by the glass, as well as giving customers the chance to choose anything from its range of hand-picked wines and beers in store to enjoy in the outdoors as the weather finally turns good.

The award-winning wine merchants overlooking St George's roundabout on Leeds Road in Harrogate have curated a shortlist of wines that reflects styles where interest, quality and enjoyability combine, from white to red to rosé and some fizz, too.

Alternatively you can choose any bottle from its wide in-store range to sip out in the sunshine.
